Mr Richard's pov
"What the hell are you doing here Helen?"
"Happy Christmas to you too Richard" She replied scornfully as she threw her hands round my shoulders gently shoving Bob aside.
I pushed her off me" Helen why are you here?,I won't ask you again"
"What will you do Richard?,hit me?, throw me out?,we both know none of that ain't going to happen,so just chill out and reminisce over my beautiful presence" She replied with a smirk .
"Since we've all acquainted,..wait ,who are you boy?" She asked Bob,I could see him stealing glances at me, probably begging for me to save him.
"He's a lawyer from work,now can you please just tell me why you're here" I quickly dragged her away from Bob.
"You'll know soon,you will Richy" she replied with a scornful laugh as she went upstairs.
"You see what you have caused William,you invited that woman here,you think I don't know?,now see ,she arrived here drunk in the morning " I turned to face William who stood almost like a figurine watching the drama his mother was causing.
"I had nothing to do with it Dad,she said she was coming with Lucretia,I didn't know she was going to turn up here drunk, please fix your marital problems dad,she is wife,don't drag me into it" he replied avoiding my eyes,I knew all this was his plan, probably to spite me and ruin whatever time I might have with Bob.
"Ex wife William, Helen is my ex wife" I corrected as I went upstairs motioning Bob to follow suit.
"You'll have to stay at the hotel for now Bob,thank God I made a reservation,you can see it's a mess here,the driver will drop you off, I'll see you tonight" I quietly dismissed him .
Knowing Helen she'll stop at nothing to figure out who Bob was once she was soba,but what was the bitch doing here, William must have invited her but I sure do know that she'll have a trick or two up her sleeve,I just have to figure out what.
"Hey Richy,did you finally come to join your lovely wedded wife?" I walked into my bedroom to see her laying recklessly on my sheets,her liquor almost spilling.
"You dirty whore,what the hell are you doing here,can you please just leave my house Helen"
"No no no no baby,our house,not your house,you see a little birdie whispered into my ears about a clause your mom left in her will, something about the wife getting her home incase of a divorce,you know her little way of supporting divorcee women after the messy divorce she has with that cunt you call a father "
Damn it, William must have brought the clause to her notice,now this vermin is here for what she does not deserve.
"Now listen to me carefully Helen,I don't care what William told you,but you know pretty well not to try me,I'll make sure you disappear from the face of the earth"
"Richy,you should know you don't scare me anymore,I was married to you for twenty seven years remember,a horrible, excruciatingly painfully twenty-seven years, I laboured with you,but you treated me like shit ,now I'm back for what's mine ,and trust me , I'll get it,so take you threat elsewhere,.....oh and before I forget,my lawyers will be in touch soon,bye for now Richy" She staggered her way out of my bedroom.
If only that son of a bitch knew what he has done by exposing his mom to such new information,the bitch is going to go deeper to find more loopholes to suck this family dry.
I have to call MK, he'd know how to handle this.
"Hey Mk ,how free are you ?"
"Is there anything you want me to handle sir?" He asked,his voice coarse as always.
"My wife, she's back in the picture, and I think she's looking into our assets and what she can get,my guess is she has spent all the settlement money partying,make sure she finds nothing,...and also ,tail her lawyers,find out of they met any judge recently, and if they did,we might need to have a word or two"
"I see my ever conniving father is back in his glory" I immediately disconnected the call as soon as I heard Williams voice.
" What are you doing here William,I see you have lost your sense of privacy huh,this is the second time you're barging into my room,if you have nothing else to say,you either leave or I'll have to force you out" He was becoming such a pain in the ass,I would have gotten rid of him a long time ago if I wasn't stuck with him as my heir.
"No need dad, I'll leave you to your conspiring, just know one thing dad,your downfall is coming, and it's coming sooner than you think " he threatened as he whistled out of the room.
Everyone is just getting on my nerves,it's funny how a trip I had planned to taunt William was now going against me,I have to set the record straight.

"Hey Bob,I have been trying to reach you all day"
"Yeah,I saw your texts but I was too tired,I just got out of the shower now " Bob replied over the phone.I knew he was lying,he was obviously ignoring my texts and calls.
"I won't be able to see you tonight,I have a thing to attend to, let's do tomorrow?"
"Yeah whatever" he disconnected the call.
"Are you done talking to your lover?"
"Why the hell do you all keep barging into my room?!,what the hell do you want now Helen?"
"I couldn't care less whoever the bitch you're talking to on phone is,my only business here is to inform you that my lawyers will be here tomorrow for negotiation,so better get ready,this house will soon be mine" he replied scornfully.
"You better tell them not to step their foot in here,or they'll leave without their legs".
"It's a season of love Richy,don't be so bitter" she laughed in mock horror as she left the room.
This bitch!
